Chapter on the Sacred Hill Episode: Satyatapā and the Marvel of Varāha
यद्गत्वा न पुनर्जन्म भवतीति न संशयः ॥ एवमुक्त्वा तु तौ सिद्धावुभौ सत्यतपारुणी
yadgatvā na punarjanma bhavatīti na saṃśayaḥ || evamuktvā tu tau siddhāv ubhau satyatapāruṇī
അവിടെ ചെന്നാൽ പിന്നെ പുനർജന്മം ഉണ്ടാകില്ല—ഇതിൽ സംശയമില്ല। ഇങ്ങനെ പറഞ്ഞ്, ആ രണ്ടു സിദ്ധരും സത്യവും തപസ്സും കൊണ്ട് ദീപ്തരായി മുന്നോട്ട് നീങ്ങി।

The verse uses a widely attested Sanskrit soteriological formula—‘having gone there, no rebirth’—useful for tracing shared mokṣa vocabulary across Purāṇas and related traditions.
No earthly site is named; the destination is doctrinal (“there” as the liberated state).
Truthfulness and austerity are highlighted as sustaining virtues associated with spiritual accomplishment.
